The sessions with Ian have been crucial to me overcoming anxiety I was very sceptical of therapy at first but after the time with Ian I think it is a very important part of overcoming issues around mental health and has helped me overcome issues I thought would be with me for life. He’s very good at listening and taking in what you are saying then helping you work towards dealing with those issues
